信息路径字段“来自字段”不可用

Question

I am trying to create an Email Template using MS-Office InfoPath and need to have the email template sent from a group email and not myself. Unfortunately Infopath only allows me to use the fields "To:", "CC:", "Bcc:", "Subject" (I don't see the "From" field)

Is there a way I can put this in?

Just an FYI, this is what I am doing.

1) Infopath designer 2) New "Blank Form" 3) "Design Form" 4) "Data" tab 5) To E-mail.

Checked all over the net but getting the feeling Infopath does not allow this. Does anybody know if this is possible?

Kind regards

Using the default EmailSubmitConnection will not give you a "From" field.

As far as I know; because InfoPath uses Outlook to submit the form it will send it from the default account so it will be "From" that account. It wouldn't be necessary to include a "From" field on the DataConnection in this case because it is automatically completed when the form is sent.

If you really want to send from an alternative account then you will need to look into using either the Outlook interop or manually create and send the email using System.Net.Mail .

Either way you will have to use code so you may want to re-evaluate what you are trying to achieve unless you are already able and willing to code your own solution.
